    Check out Rob Roy with Liam Neeson and Tim Roth. A fantastic film which is better than Braveheart IMO.

      I don't think that
      Braveheart
      is a contender for "best movie ever" but
      Rob Roy
      is a poor man's edition of it.

        Spartacus (1960) is much better than this or Braveheart, my fave old epic.

          Agreed. My favourite historical epic of all time. Gladiator wishes it was good as Spartacus.

              Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World
              Kingdom of Heaven (Director's Cut, preferably)
              The Last of the Mohicans
              Alexander (great production value and quite entertaining for the hammy acting)
              Michael Kohlhaas (known in the U.S. by the silly title Age of Uprising) is an excellent period film in the same vein as Roy Roy and Braveheart, albeit smaller in scale.
              There are also lots of great classic period action films (The Duellists [1977]) and foreign ones of all ages (from Seven Samurai [1954] to 13 Assassins [2013]).

                              Braveheart may have been riddled with inaccuracies but damn was it entertaining.

                                I don't think it's helpful to discuss which suggested movies are good or bad The OP asked for epic films, and our tastes will differ.
                                So I'd agree on
                                Ben-Hur
                                , for the sea battle and chariot race scenes, if nothing else.
                                Also, you might enjoy some foreign films such as Kurosawa's
                                Ran
                                (a retelling of King Lear) and
                                Jodhaa Akbar
                                from India.
                                The War of the Arrows
                                from Korea is epic too.

                                    I was liking "The Last Samurai" until that cheesy ending. Cruise's character needed to die.
